      Whenever I open a game at night that runs fullscreen, e.g. TF2, the color balance returns to normal. When I exit the game, the color balance is back to warm. Is there any way to force it for fullscreen games? Of course for some games there are options to run as a borderless window, and f.lux works fine there. But for others, it's either fullscreen or ugly border window. Any suggestions?

        Is this something you're seeing with all games? I'm having the same issue with an older game but only on my main PC (details are in my thread: https://forum.justgetflux.com/topic/2225/f-lux-automatically-disabling-when-i-launch-a-videogame), but when I launch a more recent game I don't have the problem at all - even full-screen and on all of my PCs.

        I'm wondering if there's some overlap between our PC's specs, similar graphics cards or that sort of thing, since my Surface Pro 3 runs the game just fine. Or if it's an issue that only presents itself in older games, perhaps something to do with the DirectX version that a game uses?

            Nope, not much overlap. I'm running integrated graphics on a laptop.

              @saxshoe Do you get it no matter what game you play?

                @saxshoe p.s. I have found that using "Movie Mode" can get - sort of - around round the problem. f.lux auto-disables when I run SW:KOTOR even in windowed mode, but doesn't when Movie Mode is switched on.
